Liverpool find themselves in a far more enviable position in Europe in comparison to their efforts in the English top-flight with qualification through to the knockout stages already secured.
Still, the possibility of topping the group remains, as challenging as the prospect of a four-goal victory over Napoli, the in-form side on the continent, sounds.
It’s not a total impossibility on the Reds’ end, though nothing short of the quality seen in our 1-0 win over Manchester City will likely be enough to snap up the lion’s share of the spoils.
Hopefully, a big result at Anfield will not only make up for the horror show of a defeat against Leeds United but also push the side to make a strong finish to the first-half of the campaign.
We’re backing Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate to form a centre-back partnership ahead of Alisson Becker in goal.
Curtis Jones comes in for Harvey Elliott in the middle of the park with Fabinho and Thiago Alcantara retaining their spots.
It’s business as usual for the front-two with Jurgen Klopp likely to select Darwin Nunez and Mo Salah.
We need to fight as possible as we can
If Jones plays we have no chance.
I agree, he’s just not good enough, he hasn’t improved from his early day’s. I’d think twice about putting him on the bench, only were short of mf’s
You could include Keita and Oxlade-Chamberlain with Jones in that category. They haven’t performed even when fit. When a 36 year old out performs these players questions need to be asked/answered.
Players are no good to the team if they spend so much time on the treatment table.
Lallana was a very good player when fit but that,sadly, wasn’t the majority of the time.
The present day schedule for top teams/players calls for exceptional fitness. YNWA
